commence d o fering amendments ask

was no chance to determine on any,

beginning with Nov. l, it would place
OH sale 2.000-mile tickets at the rate of 2
cents per mile, and that if this notice
was contrary to the terms of the aSSoci-

fined. The Rock Island Immediately
went to the support of the
Wisconsin Central and gave a
similar notice. 1t is expected that
all the other roads will follow. The

the first of this month, notified the aSSO-

the association SO that it could sell 1900

suspended. There are a good many
people in Yankton who favor the new

pers down their say for gospel. The
mprOvements..will go on and everything
will come out all right. You see, the
board that committed the alleged overt
acts, had gone out of existence: al
though some of the individual members
of that board were reappointed by Gov.
Church. yet they were members of a
new board, and accepted the same posi-
ton under the new appointment, as
though they were different individuals.
That's why no action was then taken.
It's for the overt acts since that they

THE BRUTE MCCULLOUGH.

CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-A special from
Galveston, Tex, says: William r. Nc
Cuflough, chief engineer of the steam
ship Comal, who was arrested here yes
terday, charged with brutally murder
ing a coal handler, John T. Graham,
while en- route from New York, was be-
fore United States Commissioner Spain

Dougherty and Flynn, both testified
that Mccullough threw red hot Goals on
Graham while he was lying down COM

the intense heat of the fire room.

engineer strike Graham with
an iron bar; said Graham was
naked to the waist at the time, and he
(witness) could smell the mans flesh
burning from the Goals heaped Oh his
back by Mccullough. After hearing
the evidence, the commissioner held the
prisoner in the sum of $1,000 to appear
at the November term of the United
States court. Capt. Sawyer. agent for
the Mallory line, and George Sealey.
large stakeholder in that company,
signed McCullOugh's bond. The wit
neSSeS were also held in $500 bond. Two
witnesses were bailed out by the COM
pany. The other two remain in Jail.
The probable reason why Mccullough
found bondsmen so readily was because
the COmal was three days late and was
booked to sail yesterday evening for
New York, and it was necessary to Sc
cure the services of Mccullough and
the imprisoned coal passengers. The
evidence elected was of the most dam
aging character.

CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-There was a good

entrance of the criminal court building,
followed five minutes later by detach-
ment OF eighteen more. 1t was not un-

police was known, and then it was
learned that nearly tWo-thirdS of the en-
tire force was being held in reserve at
the principal station. The police
learned yesterday, through the secret
service Of the department, that trouble
was liable to come out of the mass meet
ing at Battery ID, and that if there was
a collision between the reds and the pO-
lice, the former might attempt an as
saillt on the Jail. There was nothing
tangible in the story, for there was no

WINNIPEG, Man., Oct. 21.-The local
government organ publishes the follow
ing authentic particulars of the new
scheme by which the construction of
the road is to be secured by the 1st of
next December. 1t appears that in
stead of the government going on with
the work as a provincial undertaking. it
will be carried ON by company incor-
porated last spring under the general
railway act, which has never been disal-
lowed. and known as the Manitoba Con-
struction company. The understanding
is that Holt and his associates will carry
OH the work under this charter. The
province will be recouped by the COM
pany for almost the entire expenditure
so far made on the line. The proceeds
of S300,000 of treasury bonds now
offered are to lie used to pay off existing
liabilities and former contractors and
for rails, etc. The amount is to be paid
back to the government by the company
before the bonds mature. The company
will build the line purely as private
enterprise and will own and operate it.
The government retains power in the
contract to control the rates and the
question of the sale or movement of the
road. Under the arrangement the only
expenditure that the government may
have to foot will be the right of way. A
telegram from Holt announces that he
leaves Montreal to-day and expects to
arrive here Monday morning. Ryan q
Haney, the old contractors, have sent in
a bill which will be paid. The citizens
are able to raise the required $500, 900.

Condolences His English Relative
Out of a Large Amount.

NEW YORK., Oct. 21-Charles G.
.Francklyn, who was locked up late last
night at the Ludlow street Jail, is still
in custody, having been unable to pro-
cure the bail of S50a,00 required. The
suit in which his arrest was made is
brought by Sir Bache Cunard. The
complainant alleges that Sept "a, 1872,
he engaged Francklyn as his agent and
entrusted to him the management of an
estate consisting of about S1,000,000
worth OF bonds and securities. Oct. 6,
1888, he gave him sloe,0 more. In
turn of his property and on Sept. 25
Francklyn gave him s323.650. Sir Bache
claims that Francklyn is still indebted
to him in the amount of $4,000. 900, the
balance and accumulation of inter-
est. Nee. WhitlOck. attorney
for the plaintiff, swears that
on Oct. 6.lSS2, he gave the defendant,
as the business agent of the plaintiff,
100000 in cash, the plaintiffs portion of
the personal estate of his brother, Ed
wald Cunard. The plaintiff having
need of a large sum of money, cabled
the defendant early in 1856 to sell Secur-
tiles and transmit the money. De-
fendant failed to comply with this re-
quest, and Sir Bache Cunard came to
this country in June, and made de-
mand in person for the return of his
property. All that time the defendant
admitted that he had converted to his
own Use securities to the amount of
Of S500,000, and was unable to deliver
them to plaintiff. Defendant requested
plaintiff not to proceed against him, say
ing that he would be able in time to re-
pay the full amount. Relying upon
this and not wishing to disgrace
Francklyn, who was his cousin,
Sir Bache trusted him further. The
matter has been allowed to run along
till now it is claimed Francklyn is in
arrears to the amount of S3,OO0,0O0. Mr..

had full authority from the former for
all his acts and that Sir Bache was now

incurred by demanding that Mr.. Franck-
lyn should pay them. Mr.. Francklyn

his counsel. The affidavit upon which
the arrest was made says that according
